Vitol imports first US LNG cargo into South Hook, UK

Vitol SA will shortly import an LNG cargo into the UK through the South Hook LNG Terminal, at Milford Haven, Wales.

The vessel, YariLNG, which loaded at Sabine Pass LNG Liquefaction Terminal, US is expected to deliver its cargo to the South Hook LNG Terminal on 31 October 2018.

South Hook Gas Co. Ltd will make available terminal capacity rights to regasify Vitol's LNG cargo and deliver its gas into the UK natural gas grid. This helps diversify the supply of LNG into the UK market, while increasing utilisation of the facility's import capacity.
